BCGT090304R-G55 WKP35S Fräswendeschneidplatte – Tiger‑tec Silver coated carbide, for steel and cast iron (Walter Tools)

The BCGT090304R‑G55 WKP35S is a parallelogram 75° milling insert engineered for productive machining of steel and cast iron in medium to high‑duty milling applications

• Tiger‑tec Silver coated carbide grade WKP35S
• Parallelogram 75° plate with 7° clearance
• 0.4 mm corner radius for controlled cutting
• Optimised for steel and cast iron machining

Coated grade for extended cutting life and process economy

The Tiger‑tec Silver coating combined with the WKP35S composition provides a coated carbide microstructure designed to improve wear resistance and extend cutting life under typical milling conditions. Coatings of this type reduce flank wear and protect the substrate during elevated cutting temperatures; this leads to fewer tool changes and higher overall throughput. The technical design suits the thermal and abrasive demands encountered when machining steel and cast iron, giving an economical balance between productive metal removal rates and predictable service intervals.

Geometry that increases stability and improves chip control

The parallelogram 75° profile and a 7° clearance ensure favourable cutting angles for heavy engagement and interrupted cuts, while the 0.4 mm corner radius contributes to edge strength and surface finish consistency. The integrated G55 chipbreaker is tuned to promote repeatable chip formation when removing material in the P and K groups, reducing the risk of long, stringy chips and enabling safer swarf evacuation. Together, these features enhance process stability, reduce vibration and support reliable cycle times in demanding milling operations.

Application scope and measurable productivity gains

According to ISO designations, the insert is suited for machining group P (steel) and K (cast iron) materials, making it a versatile choice across diverse production tasks. The insert’s combination of grade and geometry favours operations where consistent surface quality and tool life are critical, such as roughing with moderate feeds or semi‑finishing passes that require repeatable results. The design reduces the frequency of regrinds and changes, contributing directly to improved productivity and consistent part tolerances under serial manufacturing conditions.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The BCGT090304R‑G55 WKP35S insert from Walter Tools is optimised for steel (ISO group P) and cast iron (ISO group K) applications.

How does the Tiger‑tec Silver coating benefit milling performance?
The Tiger‑tec Silver coating on the WKP35S grade improves wear resistance and thermal protection, which extends tool life and maintains cutting edge stability under elevated temperatures.

Which geometry features ensure good chip control?
The parallelogram 75° form together with the G55 chipbreaker and 0.4 mm corner radius helps produce short, controllable chips and reduces the likelihood of long swarf during milling.

Is this insert suitable for heavy roughing operations?
Yes, the combination of the robust grade WKP35S, reinforced corner radius and the plate’s geometry supports stable engagement in demanding milling tasks.

What is the exact designation to order this insert?
Order under SKU BCGT090304R‑G55‑WKP35S‑WALTER or the ISO designation BCGT090304R‑G55 WKP35S for clarity.
